As for etymology, how about the just discussed *yeu- (ppp *yut-),
which would make the Nordwestblock IE, but not Germanic (in which the
root exists only as a reflex of *yeu-g-, afaIk).
BTW, that velar suffix -g- appears in several of the roots on my
list; it appears to be originally an agent suffix.
